Space Sweepers (2021)

Un monde où la planète "Terre" n'aurait plus sa place...

J'ai vu ce film il y a près de 2 semaines mais j'avoue que sur le moment je n'ai pas fait de critique car je ne savais pas trop quoi en dire... Pour commencer cet avis, il faut savoir que mes bases concernant la science-fiction sont faibles... (Je n'ai d'ailleurs jamais vu "Star Wars"... Veuillez ne pas me jeter la pierre malgré le succès planétaire de cette saga, je n'ai jamais eu l'envie de me lancer dedans x'D.) Ceci pour dire que mon avis risque d'être bien différent d'une personne qui aime ce genre !

Alors l'histoire en elle-même n'a à mes yeux pas grand-chose d'extraordinaire... (Oui même avec mon peu d'expérience dans la S-F, j'ai déjà vu plusieurs films avec le même type d'histoire.) En gros, le film nous parle d'une planète "Terre" qui n'est plus viable pour l'homme mais surtout l'envie de l'homme de conquérir l'espace... (Rien de bien nouveau en gros x'D)

Lors de mon visionnage, j'ai ressenti un grand "bug de cerveau" durant une des scène du film... Cette scène est celle où tout l'équipage part avec une bombe à bord de son vaisseau et doit s'éloigner d'une certaine distance des "ilots" pour protéger l'enfant et l'ensemble des habitants... Ils auraient dû mourir dans l'explosion mais... ils ont SURVÉCU grâce au fait que l'enfant peut manipuler des nanorobots... Vous m'expliquez comment elle a pu le faire à cette distance... Et si elle savait réellement les protéger à cette distance, pourquoi se donner autant de mal pour partir avec la bombe ?! (Oui, je suis vite perturbée x'D)

Vous l'aurez compris, je n'ai pas réussi à réellement accroché à l'histoire malgré un Song Joong-Ki en tête d'affiche. (Même si comme dans la plus part de ses prestations, j'ai pas mal souri de sa bêtise =D) Cependant, ce film se laisse regarder sans réel soucis et nous permets de passer le temps mais pour ceux qui rêvent d'un grand moment de S-F, il vaut sans doute mieux se tourner vers un autre film ou série...

Not extraordinary but it's interesting.

I really enjoyed this one. It was a wholesome movie with both emotional and hilarious scenes together and it was a good blend of it. It's definitely different cause it first Korean production related to space. As its name suggests it's the story of space sweepers who do the cleaning of space debris in the year 2092. We all have wide imagination of how our future will be and actually they did a good job cause it seems like future.

As I said the story isn't extraordinary but it's entertaining. It does have many plot holes and answered questions in the last but we cannot expect to show it all in the duration of 2 hours. The actors did a good job in acting I guess the cast was good for their roles. I would really like to appreciate Park Ye Rin she's such a cute girl and did a great job portraying Dorothy.

The best part is its graphics and cinematography it's the real strength of this. The beautiful scenery and realistic graphics are really great.

Overall I really enjoyed it, don't expect too much from it but still, it's worth watching so give it one chance if you really love sci-fi and space you won't regret it watching.

A first sci-fi space k-movie that doesn't fall From a Hollywood production

this isn't a secret that Korean movies are still behind and lacking in good production.
Of course not to mention sci-fi movies which are hard to make, we can say k-movies are still lacking not like Korean dramas because a lot of them still are not good.
Space Sweeper, A Good Sci-fi Epic With Spectacular World-building

I wouldn't say it's on the same level as Hollywood, but it is a really good movie with good production, k- movies need to keep this level and go beyond to make such an enjoyable one.
great effects, the story is good for Sci-fi, and it was fun to watch

Sci-fi like fantasy is hard to make and get people to love( i love those genres from all).
if you don't like Sci-fi you can't force yourself to watch it, but if you with an open mind it's recommended.

so far for is the best k- movie I ever watch, the cast is good and with great acting, we can see here different nationalities
which is cool. (SJK has done an amazing job) , there was some pretty good humor.

omg I love this movie a lotttt. I came here for the CG and editing, and I'm not disappointed. I'm actually impressed, it was really great. The storyline was interesting, somehow predictable but I still enjoyed it. The kid was superrrr cuteeee with everyone. I love their characters and the casts did amazing job in acting it out. There were many emotional scenes, and I think I cried a little bit too much. It was heartwarming at some point, thrilling at the others, funny at times which definitely a fun ride for me. The only con would be it's predictable and rather common as lots of western movies have this kind of storyline. Yet, I love it. Do watch this guys!!

LOVED EVERY BIT OF IT TO TEARS TT

This is my second Song Joong Ki movie and I sure was not disappointed. I was waiting for this one for a long time and I loved every bit of it. I cried a lot, yes, but I loved it. It sure was predictable, and the storyline was pretty straightforward but the action and sci-fi elements were too good. Most importantly, a difficult or rich storyline is not always a must to make a movie watchable or good, on the contrary, this movie proved to me that simple and fun is best. I may be a bit biased here cos I love anything space, sci-fi and post-apocalyptic related but this was such a sweet watch. I loved how there were so many languages and so many actors from different countries, it felt like such an international and inclusive movie, which I did not expect. The actors and their characters were really good too: imperfectly human, (plus a robot and a supernatural kiddo hehe), trying to survive in a dying world but still, they were strong and had pure hearts.

South Korea now definitely has to make more sci-fi and space movies!!

DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!!

Nothing new, nothing bold

This movie didn't do anything original. The culture seems directly ripped off of The Expanse, American sci fi show based in the future where people who grow up in space are seen as the lowest class, people on earth suffer, except for the elite in their paradise. Except this movie doesn't bring any of it's political complexity and scientific mystery. And then the group chemistry seems ripped from Cowboy Bebop. Except this movie doesn't bring any of it's incredible background histories and groundbreaking music.

The music was unnoticeable. The characters were forgettable.

But the worst was the story. What even was the story? What was UTS objective? What was wrong with the CEO of UTS? Even the cure that the child got was *hand waves* nobody knows why but she suddenly has MaGiC PoWeRs ooooh~~ and then the final "gotcha" save of the crew, makes no sense in context as the director of UTS wanted to use that reactor to blow up the child because it destroys the nanobots... but she used the nanobots to protect the crew from the explosion?? Bwuuuh?

The produection value was nice, but that's about it. it's flashy, colorful , and completely empty.

really good

I have been waiting for about a month to watch this. When it was announced that it would be coming to Netflix, I was excited as the cast seemed top-notch and I just love stories that take place in space.

My expectations were lived up to. It's a fantastic movie and the CG is so amazing. I was so immersed into how good everything looked and how fantastic the movie was visually.

The plot went a little flat and it was definitely a predictable movie. However, this is a movie that I would definitely watch with my family. My sisters are all teenagers, and I think they'd really like it. It's not a movie where you have to look deep for the message or have to spend hours analyzing. It's a fun, wholesome movie that you can enjoy light-heartedly with your family.

Regarding the flat storyline, it was just as it had looked from the beginning. There were no plot-twists except maybe the one regarding the "terrorist" group. The good guys win of course and save the day.

I was fairly uncomfortable with Tiger Park's hair. It's dreads that were influenced by "reggae." With all the foreign cast and foreign aspects of the film, you would have thought that they'd have enough sense to not use any hairstyles that were CA, but alas! He was also a former drug dealer, so... yeah. :/

I loved the character's chemistry. They all got along well (in the moments that mattered) and seeing them tiki-taka was also really fun.

Like I said before, this isn't a movie to think hard about, so if you want a fun, action watch. Watch this one!! Very heartwarming and wholesome, but also has cool spaceship action moments.

Definitely worth watching

A small bit of a disclaimer: I am not someone who watches a lot of movies and if you narrow down the list of the movies I have watched to the ones that fall in the sci-fi genre you would hardly find any, so needless to say I am not the best person to write a review but I couldn’t help myself!

I absolutely loved it and didn’t mind the length at all ( if it was up-to me I would want to make it even longer,lol! just to have more scenes of the members of the Victory spaceship and that child! I would be lying if I say that I didn’t find those scenes very cute and wholesome). Given that I haven’t really watched any western sci-fi movies the plot wasn’t what I was expecting; I hadn’t prepared myself for the emotional aspect of the movie but I am not complaining. It was an emotional ride with just the right amount of thriller and comedic scenes at the right time, and thankfully they didn’t just show Koreans in the space! Also, I loved Song Joongki’s acting ( I may be biased here as I have been awaiting his return to the screen for a very long time) but those emotional scenes were executed well (and I guess there wasn’t any scene that required phenomenal / extraordinary facial expressions or sth so I cannot really praise( which I just did!) or criticise his acting skills)
Just go and watch it , you will surely not regret it until and unless you are one of those real movie critics!

I was not let down.

I was expecting the best for this movie and ended up getting the best, I am so proud of the actors and how much they ate this movie up. I absolutely love it and will rewatch it again soon, before my space drama era ends. One thing I will never stop talking about from this movie was Jang Hyun Sook (Kim Tae Ri), she is so badass and I just couldn't stop going crazy over her the entire time, Kim Tae Ri is by far one of my favourite actors and should be yours too. I think my favourite part of this movie was when Kim Tae ho (Song Joong Ki) was able to meet Suni (Oh Ji Yul), I cried buckets at that part. Suni deserved better, I really wished she wasn't outside at that time. However, I feel like it was understandable and it really helped Kim Taeho develop his character. Space Sweepers will always have a place in my heart from now on, I'm so happy with the ending and don't even get me started with Bubs, she is SO beautiful. That's all for my review, please watch Space Sweepers, ASAP.
